Words to live by...

“To laugh often and much; To win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; To earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; To appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; To leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.”
~~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

Carrot anyone?

Life is finally settling down a bit. Juliet and I have moved to Wallingford, so the 3 of us are finally under one roof. The last of the furniture is being delivered tomorrow.

 Now all we have to do is deal with the packed to the seams garage.

It taunts me.

It makes me twitch.

I may start having nightmares about the lack of organization.

I know, I'm a freak.

Juliet started the 2nd grade at Marvista, and she's loving it. In her words it's "AWESOME!".

Makes my heart happy.

And in a lovely turn of events, I'm now a full time student too! It's funny being back at the college I attended 10 years ago, and my classmates are definitely about that much younger than me, but I am thrilled to be there.

Before you know it, I'll be an RN. Me! Can you believe that?!

Finally, to usher out The Summer That Never Was and welcome The Fall That Will Surely Bring Rain, Juliet & Nani harvested their crop of carrots!

In the spring they planted purple, yellow, white, and good ol' orange carrots.
Who knew my parents have perfect soil for carrot farming?


We ended up with a few (ahem... TONS) carrots!






Thank you, Nani, for growing these with Juliet. They were pretty good!
